Oh my, I uttered the proverbial parental curse..."may you have a child twice as difficult as you"

We went to the mall today to get a few outfits and man oh man, Amelia had no desire to follow what we said or did. As far as she was concerned, she was her own boss and we could all kiss off if we didn't like it. We managed to get her to go in the clothes store with us for a few minutes...she's a natural.

To get her to leave the mall Laura had to lure her with a chocolate covered pretzel.

This is gonna be a fun one kids. Maybe I should have kept my mouth shut...

Not only did I get to see Kim, we were able to catch up for over an hour before she had to go through security.Some things are meant to be...

The second is the goofiest picture of my second camera man Brian...perfect
